Abstract: In the title complex, [CuBr₂(C₁₉H₁₅N₃O₂)], the metal ion is coordinated by the N,N',O-tridentate 2-hydroxy-N'-[phenyl(2-pyridyl)methylene]benzohydrazide ligand and two bromide ions, resulting in a distorted CuN₂OBr₂ square-based pyramidal coordination geometry with one bromide ion in the apical site. An intramolecular N-HO hydrogen bond occurs in the ligand. In the crystal, molecules are connected by intermolecular C-HO, C-HBr and O-HBr interactions.
